Approaching the Qur'an: The Early Revelations
I read this book as a part of the Summer Reading Inititative at my undergrad university amid a lot of controversy (...it's a long story). In retrospect, I thought it was a very well-written and eye opening read about the Qu'ran. I also remember the CD that went along with it and listening to the suras, and how beautiful of an addition it was to learning about the early interpretations of the passages.
